In fact, its a common type of online attack in which scammers try to trick you into installing adware and PUP. Even though, the gip.driverdiv.net site seems to be pretty new, this unethical marketing scheme to say the least isnt new at all. The adware is designed to display pop-up ads with almost every click in Chrome, Firefox or Interner Explorer. Ads may appear when you open a new tab as well. Very often, this adware infection leads to unwanted sluggish performance. This adware installs registry information that loads during computer start up. As you probably know, when too many programs are running at one time, your computers operating system may seem slow or sluggish.
